I have an Odometer in JS that is powered by a notepad, so I needed to load the load.txt every 5 seconds or so...

I tried to use setTime() but it didn’t work very well!

Here’s the part I’d like to run every five seconds... 

$("odometer").load("counter.txt");

Any idea?

If you expect recursive behavior, you should use the setInterval()

function carregar()
{
  ///$("odometer").load("counter.txt");
  console.log('olar');
}

setInterval(carregar,5000);
